Mission: The susan b. Anthony center, inc. (sba) was founded in 1995 in fort lauderdale, florida to provide critical services to at-risk families involved in substance addiction. The susan b. Anthony recovery center began as a vision of the junior league of greater fort lauderdale to address the critical need for residential treatment services for families involved in substance addiction and in the child welfare system. The league provided the seed money, in february 1995, and created a separate 501(c)(3) and community board. In september 1995, the first house opened with five women and six children in residence.

I recently participated in the Susan B. Anthony Center's Day of Caring-over 1000 volunteers from major companies came to relandscape and paint the center. This improved the morale of the resident woman and their children. When I attended the "thank you " luncheon, the women stood up and gave us all a heartfelt thanks and a painting that they did to take home. I will cherish this painting and this experience forever. The program is really helping women who were mostly drug dependent to build a life for themselves and live with their children at the same time-It is an amazing place and the staff and CEO should be commended for their great work.
